Codex:

Filters whether to automatically update core, a plugin, a theme, or a language.

The dynamic portion of the hook name, $type, refers to the type of update being checked.

Possible hook names include:

  • auto_update_core
  • auto_update_plugin
  • auto_update_theme
  • auto_update_translation

Since WordPress 3.7, minor and development versions of core, and translations have been auto-updated by default. New installs on WordPress 5.6 or higher will also auto-update major versions by default. Starting in 5.6, older sites can opt-in to major version auto-updates, and auto-updates for plugins and themes.

See the {@see 'allow_dev_auto_core_updates'}, {@see 'allow_minor_auto_core_updates'}, and {@see 'allow_major_auto_core_updates'} filters for a more straightforward way to adjust core updates.
